Boy crippled by polio overcomes his handicap by learning to walk on his HANDS
Deng Zongcheng, 13, was diagnosed with polio shortly after he was born in rural Lilou village, Henan province, China, and lost the use of his legs before he even learned to walk. But determined Deng nevertheless learned to crawl and, by the age of six, eventually learned to walk on his hands. By the time he was 12 he was also an excellent climber. Now Deng is hoping that all of the publicity that has generated interest in his case might also lead to further treatment which might one day enable him to walk.
